Chapter 9: Sickening Romance
I stumbled along the ground. I could sense a feeling of calm as he slowed me down. I stopped completely and I could feel his arms move around to me shoulders. I slowly had my hands pulled from my eyes. The sun shinned brightly into them. I smiled slightly until I realized where we were. The once large tree now seemed smaller as I was now sixteen. I grimaced at the past as well as Frodo.
"Why did you bring me here?" I shakily questioned.
"This," He began as he pulled me closer to the tree I envied. "Is a place I haven't visited, since then, but now I can."
I puffed and stared at his soft blue engaging eyes. I calmed down slowly and waited for him to continue.
"I only bring you here, to say, this is where I first knew, I loved you." He said sweetly.
My body froze. I stood in shock at what he said. My mind flashed to the past, I knew he loved me, and I felt the same. But my repressed anger shot out again to lash against Frodo.
"WHY?" I angrily said. "Why here?"
Tears filled my eyes. I fell slowly to the ground with weakened knees. Frodo slowly came closer to the ground to face me.
"I love you, that is why." He said. "And this is where our romance began, and never ended."
I couldn't be angry for long. He words soothed me, and I gave out a slight smile. I gazed into his eyes and leaned into him. Our lips met and then separated.
"I love you." I whispered.
A large smile crossed his face. He jumped up from the ground and began to dance wildly about for an unknown reason. I laughed at him, but quickly quieted as he noticed me. He walked over to me slyly and lifted me from the ground.
"Would a fare lady wish to dance, with a gentleman?" He questioned.
"Very much."
Even with my fears I began to dance close to Frodo, clenching him, hoping he would be with me for an eternity. I smiled uncontrollably as we danced along the grassy area. Suddenly a loud shout came from behind me. I turned around quickly to see Petunia running quickly up the small hill area.
"Ayana!" She yelled.
As she reached us, she began to catch her breath. Her eyes were filled with worry as she stared at me.
"It's Merry." She quickly said.
My heart leaped when his name came to my ears. I turned my head to Frodo. He was staring at me.
"Where is he?" I questioned.
"He is at his home."
"I have to go." I said.
I turned from him and began to run from them. I could hear them behind me. But I didn't care. I only wanted to get to Merry. I ran blindly against the wind as I slowly reached his home. I ran through his gate, pushing it out of my way. I ran up to his door, and knocked furiously.
An old female hobbit answered the door. I tipped my head in confusion. I knew it was something horrible. Merry would take care of himself without another individual. I heard both Petunia and Frodo run up beside me.
"Where is he?" I asked almost angrily.
"In his room." She began. "He is waiting to see you."
I smiled slightly and walked quickly past the lady. I walked swiftly back to his room where he would be. Frodo and Petunia were stopped by the hobbit, and held outside the door. I was the only one to see him, at this time. I opened his door and slowly entered his room.
"Merry?" I said softly.
"Ayana?" a harsh voice questioned.
I turned my head to his bed where he was lying. I ran over to him and sat next to his body.
"What happened?" I asked with worry.
"I am not well, not well at all." He replied. "I was well until you had left, and in an instant I felt a cold chill."
"I am so sorry Merry, if I could have been there, I would know." I sincerely said.
"I know." He replied.
I smiled at him as he smiled back. He began to cough loudly, and it scared me. He coughed harshly with a scratchy voice. I turned from him searching for any liquid. Then I noticed a small glass filled with water. I grabbed it without any question.
I handed it to him. Merry took it and began to drink the water. He swallowed hard and handed the glass back to me.
"Thank you." He said gratefully.
I gave a nod as I placed the glass on his nightstand. I smiled again and watched as he slowly closed his eyes. I knew he would be tired.
I stood up from the bed and stepped out of the room, so I would not disturb him. I walked along his halls until I reached the front door. I stared at both Frodo and Petunia, as they awaited me to speak.
"He is ill, but I believe he will get better. He is sleeping now." I said.
They both brought their heads down in sadness. But I brought my hand to both of them. I knew both loved Merry very much, as well did I.
"We should be joyful, he is not hurt beyond repair." I encouraged them.
Frodo turned his head up to me, and he slightly smiled. Petunia was still upset but she calmed and her eyes dried.
"Then we shall all go along with our day, hoping for Meriadoc to be well." Frodo said.
I knew he was right, but I did not feel up to having a romantic time. I smiled to him as I stepped out of Merry's house. I walked along the stone steps and out his gate. I closed the gate once they were past me. I walked along with them until Petunia stopped abruptly making Frodo and I turn to her.
"Petunia?" I questioned.
"I have food cooking, I almost forgot!" She nearly shouted.
She ran past us and waved from behind her. I shook my head and gave a slight laugh. Then I knew Frodo would want to spend more time with me.
"Frodo, I had better, help her." I said.
He gave an understanding look. He gave a slight kiss on my lips, as I returned it. I smiled and then quickly ran past him, to Petunia's house. I knocked loudly on her door before I entered.
"Petunia, would you like some help?" I questioned.
There was complete silence. I had no idea what was going on. I walked through her house until I entered her room. There was no sign of Petunia. But then I ran into her bathroom where I began to hear noise. I knocked quickly, but no sound came from the inside. I tried to open the door but, it would not open more than an inch. I push the door harder and harder until the door opened. Then I realized what was in front of the door. Petunia's body lay on the cold wood floor.
"Petunia!" I shouted in shock.
I leaned down to her; she looked so cold, so frail. My eyes filled with tears, as I screamed her name repeatedly. But she did not wake.
A/N: I know, I know, damn cliffies, lol..well that was very interesting, I didn't even think of this until now.and now you have to wait for chapter 10! I love you guys!
